My investment land company did not sell anything, no surprises there, so I took another 4K hit on taxes there.
My private investment company did about a 16% gain last year. I probably was too conservative but this is only a paper gain as I made few trades. Taxes on reinvestment of dividends buying more shares.
My detective agency had another very good year, 5 in a row. However, insurance costs, government mandated regulations (from a GOP Legislature) across the board are killing small business here in Georgia.

About 31% overall.
I no longer have any holdings in the dollar or Euro and no longer invest in any US based companies.
My focus this year will continue to be Latin America and the unknown portions of Asia. Especially Indonesia and Vietnam.
Australia and Canada are solid but not "dangerous" enough for my movie. I DO recommend them for the average person.
Better New Year and turn off the BOOB tube...........remain awake. It'll only get better if you get smarter.
